This is what we're having. Monday: Leftovers from the fish fry Tuesday: Grilled hamburgers and fries Wednesday: Sloppy joes, mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables (leave out 1 lb after browning for spaghetti) (save leftover sloppy joe mix) Thursday: Spaghetti, salad, garlic bread (save leftover spaghetti sauce) Friday: Eating with friends Saturday: L)Hot dogs with homemade chili (use leftover sloppy joe and spaghetti sauce) S)chicken tortilla casserole, refried beans, salad Sunday: L)crockpot roast w/gravy, potatoes, carrots, butterpeas, biscuits or cornbread ...
